SDS is that you? is this motivation patch 1.6 ?

@CEZdominatesAD said in Too many complaints. Years ago there were no updates. Stop crying:

The new generation of gamers cry and cry and cry. So sad. I’m 35 and been gaming forever. This needs to be patched that needs to be patched. Imagine playing games and some one disconnects and doesn’t get the loss cuz he was winning (mlb the show on ps 2) What about when u would kick a fg in madden people could unplug and replay the Ethernet cord and [censored] up the connection. How about having to play all of the horrible NBA live games that were painful to play?
Stop crying and win games.

So, are you saying people should just spend there hard earned cash like good little sheeple and don’t report gameplay issues ? Not sure what your point is.... I’m glad people point out flaws in the game, in the end it can make for a better game ...

@j9milz said in Wanna know what I love about this game?:

My favorite is when playing the cpu and how alert and urgent they are when throwing the ball in. Yet my outfielders take their time and throw lobs with 90+ arm strength. Lol

Lol that’s funny... The lack of urgency drives you crazy sometimes... THROW THE EFFIN BALL!!!

Pitching hitting duel is what baseballs is all about, you gotta get that part right... Not saying fielding or base running isn’t important, it is, but the pitchers hitters duel is super important... Pitching accuracy should be improved

bolded text@theu715 said in Randomized hitting.:

How about fixing pitching? The randomness of pitching has made things even worse. Go back and play MLB 17 or even 18 and see how many times you hit your spot and the pitch goes middle middle or hangs up a ton when you’re throwing below the zone. Hitting will always be somewhat random, but pitching should be 100% user input based as far as pitches going to the location you’re throwing to.

Truth ... Pitching in 19 is a step back from 18, random meatballs even with perfect placement is annoying... 18 that didn’t happen..

Real life baseball game as much as possible, with user control of course being a big part, but hitting should be a simulation, higher rated batters should make a difference even when squaring up... Pitching should be accurate, higher rated pitchers even more accurate...

Directional hitting feels like real baseball, that’s how it is when your batting for real, timing, try to hit the ball where they aren’t, bat on ball ... When you use directional hitting sometimes they miss even with perfect timing, so it’s not some huge advantage, it just feels more like real baseball... I can’t stand trying to line some curser up with the ball, it feels like an arcade game doing that .... I say leave all options available for how someone prefers it ...

@ZABEN2583 said in Post Here If...:

...you DON'T use the PCI. I never have, as I find it distracting. I think I'm just old school. However, I am curious who else doesn't.

I only use directional hitting, It’s more like real batting... when you’re actually hitting in real baseball you don’t have some PCI thing to line up, it’s bat on ball, timing.... PCI makes it so cheesy in my opinion ...

Shame they had the fielding good in 2019 for the most part, no reason to go backwards in 2020...

If you play better you will notice that you won't have any issues.

Playing better won't overcome programming errors...

I like the whistle, nothing wrong with it, it’s not like it happens that often …

I agree, it makes me feel pretty.

LoL

Switch still needs some updates for frame rate issues especially during cutscenes, it’s really bad at times, just needs some polishing! Home run replay after the inning ends gets hung up for 10-15 seconds sometimes before the replay is even shown, you just see the player sitting there looking like he’s at 5 frames per second… Also all celebrations, championship or dugout really drop to a crawl … It just needs some TLC… BUT my God you guys have done a fantastic job, and I mean that, the gameplay overall is effin fantastic !! Hitting, pitching, fielding all feel’s great, It’s a great accomplishment SDS, loving the game !

Perfect perfect is just timing, that doesn’t mean you make the perfect contact every-time, that would be arcady … In real baseball if you time it perfect that doesn't mean you contact the ball perfect …

I like the whistle, nothing wrong with it, it’s not like it happens that often …

Hi guys, is this the 'I am not as good as I thought I was so I blame everything on RNG support group's?

@bruinboy20_mlbts said in Switch version:

Played me first game this morning. My LG OLED died yesterday ... after 5 days ... and had to do something to keep playing. Downloaded the Switch version, got cross progression linked and had fun. My 70 year old eyes need stronger readers to see the ball, but like the fact I can still play when my wife and I travel. BTW ... new TV delivered this afternoon less than 24 hours after it died. Great service from the store from which I purchased it on Monday.

Wow, TV died after 5 day’s ? That’s not ok …. At least they replaced it for you …

First, WOW, definitely a great job porting this to the Switch for The Show on the Go ! Game definitely needs some patching though, lots of hang ups on replays and unstable frames at times, but overall definitely cool to have the Show on the go ! I still play the Vita versions and this is a GIANT step up, and I just wanted to give some props to you guys for getting this done ! Thanks!

I always use the pitcher view when pitching, I noticed in last years version you changed that camera view just a little bit for the pitcher setting view, made it further away.. It’s not an issue on a big screen TV, BUT I noticed when testing the switch version it’s really hard to see the strike zone zone when playing in hand held mode, be nice to have a little more of a zoom option… Just a request, looking forward to the new version!

I liked the rule, it was a good way to speed up regular season games in extra innings, created a level of drama… They weren’t gonna use it in the post season anyway, just regular season… MLB season is a long marathon, why have these long extra inning games that go on for 6 hours ? it’s fair, both teams get the opportunity …

Baseball is a long game because it’s baseball.

Actually the season is long, extra inning games can go on for a looooooooooooong time, having that player out on second speeds that up, and it’s fair because both teams get a chance … I like the rule, MLB should keep it for the regular season…
